"The Devil's Advocate" to Become a TV Series

Warner Bros TV along with producers John Wells and Arnold Kopelson are developing a new TV series that will be based on the 1997 film "The Devil's Advocate," which starred Keanu Reeves, Al Pacino and Charlize Theron.

The new show is being written by Matt Venne ("Bag of Bones," The Exorcism of Molly Harley) and centers on a public defender who joins a law firm that is run by the Devil himself. It's being described as a legal drama with a supernatural twist.

"The Devil's Advocate" TV series will air on NBC if the network ends up liking the pilot episode.
